    When I was in college, the Burger King closest to campus would hand out 2 for 1 Whopper coupons.
    Depending on my finances, I would go halfsies with another student and split the fries and Coke.
    If I was flush w/ bucks - relatively speaking - I'd buy both for myself, and eat one for lunch, and another for dinner.

    My old house got coupons for Burger King frequently. I usually wait for the coupon. But this house doesn't get many coupons. My Subway app was running a buy one get one free on foot longs. That's ended.

    Ankle is still sore and don't feel like limping into the store for tortilla's. I'll just do more fast food. Big mac combo.

    Wow... memories, the BK lounge. One late night we swiped Herb, the cardboard cutout. They were ticked.

    Don't feel bad, apart from when we have company - which is out the window with corona - we hardly ever drink wine in anything other than juice glasses or tumblers. Have a good weekend and a better next week.

    Wife picked up opah at Central Market, which I guess is the Texas version of the fancy Wegmans stores. Never had it, so I marinated it in soy sauce, ginger, a squirt of lime juice, S&P.

    About 4 or so min per side. Nice piece of fish, meaty. Not as meaty as swordfish, but nice flavor. I made a soy sauce, Wasabi, white miso dipping sauce. Cleared my sinuses straight out!

    Tonight was chicken jalfrezi. Served it with saffron rice. And I took some of our dried pequin peppers, which I had ground up in our spice blender, and sprinkled that over the top. Next year, I'm going to see if I can grow Thai chili peppers, and up my game.

    Its easier to go to a restaurant. A noticed a Vietnamese restaurant across the street from the place I get Chinese take out. Might try it.

    Think tonight is halibut platter at fish n chips place. Fried shrimp and oysters with the halibut make a great filling dinner.

    Nice! Most of our vegetable garden is finishing up, but the Calabrian pepper plants that survived the summer heat - 2 bushes - are still green and putting out flowers and peppers, albeit not many peppers. Do you get frosts in the Central Valley? We've been as cold as upper 30s thus far, and the forecast suggests no freeze for the next week or so. Been a nice long fall here in Texas, perfect for driving...T

    Using Crescent Rolls from a tube - you can do something akin to a (Taco) Calzone. Lots of possibilities.

    Mom would cut up franks, roll them up in crescent roll dough from the tube, bake. Serve them with pork and beans...T

    Brother is over watching football. We are ordering Pizza Hut for lunch. I'll have the left overs for dinner.

    Our Calabrian peppers are still green and pretty. One's in a pot, so I moved it to get a tad more southern exposure. I hope I can get a couple more peppers for the seeds.

    Brisket ramen. Leftover brisket - chop up and simmer in about a quart of water. Discard and skim off the fatty bits. Strain. Add liquid to a packet of ramen noodles. Steep for about 2 to 3 minutes. Added some sliced Calabrian peppers.

    Cucuzza parmesan. Peeled & sliced cucuzza. Layered with ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Top with sliced meatballs. Bake at 350 F until bubbly. Made two of these with the last batch of cucuzza from the garden.
